The Search for Early Fossil Sharks in Lower Devonian rocks of the Mackenzie Mountains, NWT
Principal Investigator: Wilson, Mark V.H.
Licensed Year(s): 2013 1998 1996 1990
Summary: The 2 objectives of this research project are: 1) to recover some of the oldest-known body fossils of sharks and their relatives as well as other associated fossils. The anatomy of the fossil species will be described in detail and published in international journals. These fossils will allow identification of fragments of related species found at other sites worldwide, and will allow the researc...


Collaborative research: A sequence, chemo- and biostratigraphic study of Late Early Cambrian rocks, southern Selwyn Basin, Mackenzie Mountains, NWT.
Principal Investigator: Pope, Michael
Licensed Year(s): 2003 2002 2001
Summary: The Early Cambrian is an important time in Earth history for it records the widespread radiation of animals during significant climatic, sea level, and tectonic changes. This project will be a stratigraphic, geochemical, and paleontological study of high...


Trilobite Systematics and Event Stratigraphy of the Paleozoic.
Principal Investigator: Chatterton, Brian D.E.
Licensed Year(s): 1994 1992 1991
Summary: Rock samples will be collected for processing in the lab. Some of these rocks will be processed for fossils (primarily silicified trilobites) which will be photographed and described for classification purposes. The data gathered will then be used for understanding the ancient (350-450 million years ago) ecology and the correlation of these rocks. Levels where there are extinctions followed by e...
